o im fio/wm it may concern.'

Be it known that LUDWIG BJURI, :icitizen of the United States, end resident of the city of Seattle, county of King, end State of v.Vlhieliin,g'to11, have invented certain new end useful. .Lnpioveinents in Time-Controlled rlietnating lillechenisin, oir' which the follow ing isY e specification..

My" invention relates to tiine controlled devices for starting mechanisms and coinprises the novel parte end combinations ot' parte which will be hereinafter described and thenwgmrticnlarly deiined by the claims'.

The object of .iny invention is to provide ineens whereby en elerin clock, or like time .controlled device, may be readily applied to, Iand removed from, objects which it ie de sii'ed to start in operation et predetermined time.

lin the accompanying drawings neve shown any device embodied in the forin oi? construction which is now moet preferred by me.

Figure l is top plan view of phonograph table, showing `iny device applied thereto. i

Fig. 2 shows, in enlarged Seele, the application oit my device to the seme mechanism but showing the parts in diii'erent nposition..

Fig. l is e perspective of the plete which is attached to the stationery trible off e. phonograph and 'to which my device ie epplied and hy which the device ie rendered easily applicable to and reinovehie from said inechenisms.

'il have herein shown my device es applied to n phonograph. for snr-ting the saine. This particular mechanism hee heen chosen for purposes of illustration, hat 'Without any thought limiting the application of the device to such inechenieni. its e'nolicebility otherl mechanisms-Will he readily underm stood.

in the drawings i represents the tahle or freine upon `which the 'turntable 1G of As the menne for determining the time of starting of the de vice employ en alarm clock, the seine heine herein indicated hy the freine Worlr 2.

This freine Work, or casing, c suitable elerin cloclr nicelmnm shown es provided *iv/ith e. heee hase is provided withv ineens vfnerehy the .typical of e.. connecting' o may he connecte trolled thronen th Clock may be properly placed upon the mechanism to be controlled, in order to secure eXactregist'ry therewith. The Ineens herein illustrated for securing this result consists in providing` the bese of' the cloclr with projecting pins 2l and in providing the plete 22, which ie adapted to he scented to the table, or other "portion ot the de nice to he controlled thereby, es hy Screws passing through holes Q4, and additionally, if desired, by .ineens oit` prongs 25 which muy enter the Surface of Said table. This plate ie provided with holen.y ne 2S. so plnced :w to receive the pine or projections carried hy the heee of the el in this manner^` the proper position for the crock 'ie secured so that it may be easily applied und removed iith certainty that it 'will be in exactly the right position.

The shaft 3, Shown in 3, is the shot!" to which the inner lend of the alarm spring` ie eecnred.

This elicit me secured thereto en actuating member which ineinber is herein shown. erin fl. The che rector of this. ectn atingnieinher willA depend npon thc cimeli construction of the ineens employed ior connecting said fil.f.,rni mechanism with the mechanism which is to he Started or controllcd by niy device.
